On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle
Chapter 114: Concession and Winning Over
Song Xile nodded and continued to ask, "Dad, you are not planning to dig the pond at the foot of the mountain with just a few of us, right?"
"I originally thought that apart from keeping the bean seeds for our family to plant, the rest would be given to the clan leader to distribute to the families in the village who are struggling to make a living!"
"Of course we don't give these bean seeds for free. They need to come to our house to dig a pond!"
"Dad, what do you think of this proposal?"
Yang nodded first. "It can not only solve the manpower problem of digging ponds, but also help the poor people in the village. It's killing two birds with one stone."
After hearing his daughter's suggestion, Old Song's heart was no longer so painful!
High-yield bean varieties are hard to come by, but he has money and all he needs to do is call for help. There are plenty of villagers willing to help!
But his daughter had just said that, and he knew that at this time, he had to maintain good relations with his tribesmen.
Old Song rarely objected, but instead said affirmatively: "This way, we will have manpower to dig the pond, and we can also help the tribe members who are living in poverty. Then I will go and talk to my uncle about this!"
"Dad, don't worry. I asked you to send the bean seeds to those in the tribe who are in financial difficulty because I don't want them to have trouble making a living!"
"Just like this, we can't make all the tribesmen share the same interests with us! We can't make everyone work together!"
Old Song was stunned and said anxiously, "Oh, tell me quickly, tell me quickly, don't make me angry!"
Chen Yunyou glanced at his wife, and he probably knew what she wanted to do!
Does the wife want to share the produce from the fields?
He stared at his wife without blinking, his eyes clear and hot!
Sure enough, as he expected, the next moment he heard Xile say: "Dad, I want to discuss with you that we will only keep 40% of the melons and vegetables we grow, and the remaining 60% will be divided equally among the tribesmen!"
This sentence was like a thunderclap, making Old Song's ears buzz!
Everyone in the Song family was shocked! They obviously didn't expect Xile to say that!
"Sixty percent?" Old Song couldn't help but repeat, his voice trembling, "That's more than half of the harvest! No, no, absolutely not!"
"Dad, this is something that must be done!" Song Xile said in a firm tone.
“Let me not talk about the thirty acres of land, whether you and your elder brother can handle it!
"Let's say, if someone keeps coveting our family's food, Dad, can you protect it?"
"The drought will only get worse as time goes on. If someone with ulterior motives incites you to take away your bean seeds, no one will believe you even if you declare that you gave them all to the county magistrate!"
"At this time, we can only rely on our clansmen to protect our food. Only when our interests are aligned will they be willing to protect it with all their heart!"
What Song Xile was reluctant to say was that the pumpkin yield was too tempting. With the weather being like this, a reduction in yield this year was an indisputable fact.
By then, there will be countless hungry people. How can they, as a family, expect to hold on to the harvest of these 30 acres?
I'm afraid it's just a foolish dream!
Old Song didn't say anything. He knew his daughter was right, but his heart ached. That was 60% of the food!
Seeing that her husband had committed lewd acts again, Yang immediately decided, "Just do as the maid wishes!"
She was someone who had experienced famine. When people are extremely hungry, let alone the crops planted outside!
Even if the aroma of rice wafts from someone's house, hungry people will rush to steal it!
Seeing her father's distressed look, Song Xile tried to comfort him, "Dad, I would say we didn't suffer any loss!"
Old Song glared, "How can I not suffer any loss? I'll say nothing of giving away so many bean seeds! And I'm also giving away 60% of the harvest!"
"Dad, we can't give them the harvest for free. Each household must send one person to cultivate the land. There will be people to water and weed the land, and patrol the land every day!"
"Dad, do you think you can do all of this?"
After hearing what his daughter said, Old Song was instantly speechless!
Old Song sighed heavily, secretly thinking that what his daughter said was indeed right.
His wife is weak and can only do light work. The main labor force in their family is him and his two older sons!
It is obviously difficult for just a few of them to complete such a complicated task!
Besides, my daughter is right.
If the time to harvest the food really comes, those starving people will inevitably have evil intentions when they see that they have so much food.
Having the tribesmen around gives you an extra layer of protection!
After figuring it out, Old Song coughed unnaturally and said, "Okay, let's do as you say!"
Song Xile sighed in his heart, he finally convinced the person!
She simply stood up and said to his father, "Don't hesitate, while it's still early, Dad, I will accompany you to settle this matter with the clan leader grandfather!"
Old Song felt that his mind was in a mess at the moment, and he was also worried that he had said something he shouldn't have said. He was actually happy to have his daughter go with him!
The most important thing is that this idea was thought up by my daughter, and some of the details do require her to answer!
When Chen Yunyou saw his wife stand up, he stared at her with burning eyes, and his meaning was obvious: he also wanted to go!
Song Xile originally wanted Yun You to wait for her at home, but seeing his pitiful look, she finally gave in and said, "If you want to go, let's go together!"
For a moment, his dark eyes seemed to be filled with starlight, making her dare not look at him!
She suddenly turned around and walked out of the main room first, looking like she was escaping in a panic!
Chen Yunyou looked at his shy wife, the smile on his face widened, and he followed her out in a good mood!
The little interaction between the two of them could not be hidden from Yang's eyes.
Yang stood at the door of the main room, her eyes fixed on the receding backs of her daughter Xile and son-in-law.
Her daughter's hasty choice of a husband has always been a concern for her. Today, seeing the loving relationship between the two, Yang was very pleased!
"Mom, my sister seems to be different!"
"After all, she's married, and seems to be more independent-minded than before!" Song An sighed!
"My aunt has suddenly encountered a disaster, and her temperament has changed. I think it's a good thing for her to be like this. No one else can bully her anymore!" Xu on the side sighed!
These words reminded Yang of the situation her daughter had told her about!
People at that time were very superstitious and believed in ghosts and gods very much. Yang was worried that some people would use this to attack her daughter!
She said to her sons with a serious face, "Don't mention this in front of outsiders anymore!"
"Now that your younger sister is married, she must be independent and strong. As her brothers, you should support and protect her instead of talking about her changes behind her back." Yang said to her sons seriously.
Several people lowered their heads and promised: "Mom, we got it, and we will never mention this matter again!"
In fact, they also prefer the younger sister who has her own opinions now!
It makes people feel convinced and safe for no reason!
